Airsound, as with SMs post I found your's also informative and concise. I also have a bit of insight of behind the scenes from my own personnel experiences, but what has gone before now has very little bearing on the tremendous efforts currently by the club membership to get her back in the air and when we succeed, leave us to prevent this from happening again.
I am also one who has questioned the management competancy and used the cry wolf analogy, but again it is pointless going over the whys and wherefores now, or justification for this comment or that comment from last year, lets just concentrate on the task ahead get the pledge total to a figure that will give a green light for this years flying programme on the 6th.
